Yea that's 100% airmass, not sensor placement. 5 minutes ago, WxWatcher007 said: Incredible heat. What’s driving it?

Bounced back to 98 at 8pm. https://www.wunderground.com/history/daily/us/va/arlington/KDCA/date/2012-6-29 MN, do you have any records of your high temperature on Friday, July 19 2019 and possibly what time it occurred? I'm trying to compare obs in Nova from today vs that day. If so, it's much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only way we stay under 103-104 in DC I think is if precip tomorrow interferes. 100 today and the pattern is only getting warmer.. +EPO patterns always bust higher.. especially in the Wintertime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
